This README describes the template files for writing C++ device
servers. 

It is now possible to write TACO device server in C++ (as opposed
to using Objects In C). In order to help programmers write their
first C++ device servers the following template files are provided :

	src/Template.C - template for a device class Template in C++

	src/startup.C - template of a startup() function in C++

	src/Makefile - template Makefile for generating a device
		       server called Templateds under OS9 using the
		       Ultra-C++ compiler

	include/Template.H - template include file for the Template
	                     C++ class.

	doc/DSN109.ps - user's guide on how to write a device server
	                in C++ (postscript)

To use the template files copy them to your development area. Use
your favourite editor to change all occurrences of "Template" and
"template" to "MyDeviceClass" and "myDeviceClass", where MyDeviceClass
is the name of your new C++ device class. Go thorugh the code and
make other changes manually e.g. add new commands, change comments,
change temporary variable names. Try to compile. Go back to the editor
and fix compiler time errors. Try to compile and so on ...
